Kinky Curly Weave 101: ONYC® Kinky Curly Guide

OK, maybe you’ve watched endless ONYC® Kinky Curly Weave videos on YouTube, saw countless pictures on Facebook, Twitter or blog with everyone rocking ONYC® Kinky Curl and they all seem to be in love with it. Now you want to join the ONYC® Kinky Curly Weave bandwagon…. While we welcome you aboard, slow down and read below before proceeding!

Inspiration: Let’s face it. Ask any ethnic woman that wears extensions what their main concern is when searching for hair extensions and she’ll tell you it’s finding hair that looks like her own. But that’s not all, she’ll also tell you that she wants the highest quality coupled with the ease of manageability. Thelma Okoro, CEO of ONYC® Hair and hair extensions expert, has tried all types of hair and realized that there were no brands that catered to ethnic textured hair. “Extensions are supposed to look and blend in with your hair… That’s when it was time to establish ONYC®,” said Thelma Okoro.

Fact: ONYC® Kinky is not just another grade of kinky hair. It has been perfectly emulated to replicate a natural 3B-3C and 3C-4A curl pattern. Our curl pattern is manually hand tied on a rod to create curls that go in different directions, instead of a uniform curl created by machines. The end goal is to offer you the most natural look! ONYC® Kinky is a derivative of Full Cuticle Virgin hair so it offers a much easier maintenance. There will still be the effort required to maintain this hair, but our maintenance guide will help you enjoy your hair for a long time. In general, kinky hair requires more care than any other hair! It will require more care compared to our Indian or any other Mongolian hair selections that we offer! The very tight ringlet curl pattern and coarser texture that you love creates friction which may result in tangling. If not properly detangled, this will ultimately lead to shedding.

I like to use pre-tipped hair and have it installed strand by strand. Do you only offer the kinky/curly on a track just for weave installation? Also my hair is an odd mix..kind of wavy straight in the front and curly wavy at the crown. I was wondering if you have some coming that is a bit smoother, a little less frizz in the texture? But the main thing is that it is the hardest thing to find pre-tipped curly hair! They have it in body wave, which is really too straight for me to do the wash and wear thing.
